Follow the adventures of author/illustrator Mike Ivy’s 8-year-old self as he navigates the stress of everyday life and school while living in his own fantasy world as he pursues his ambitions to draw the most epic comic book ever created. A humorous, nostalgic, illustrated romp for geeks, nerds, and introverts aged 8 to 108.
This newly revised second edition is completely redesigned with previously unpublished artwork.
"Reconnect with your inner child through this whimsical and charming book. The author/artist clearly remembers what it's like to be a child, and he brings you along on his sweet, sentimental journey of the imagination. I loved it." --D. K. Boyd
"Beautifully illustrated, this book will immediately take you back to your childhood. I miss my spacesuit." -- Loyd Blankenship
"This was a cute and entertaining book that draws the reader into the life and remarkable imagination of an 8 year old's daily life. The author is also the illustrator, and the drawings help tell the story in a way everyone has related to once in their lives. Original and amazing illustrations, this book is an enjoyable read for everyone. I especially recommend for children who are more introverted, into science fiction, and exploring the galaxy." --Carr Simpson
Coming soon:
Now that he's has completed the first issue of his epic comic book, My 8-Year-Old Self is having a hard time finding inspiration for issue #2. Will he ever climb out of this sophomore slump?
I'm currently working on editing, layout and design, hoping to publish next year.
Check out the preview below:
Planning has begun for book 3, which will focus on the consequences of the cliffhanger ending of The Sophomore Slump. The title will be revealed once Book 2 has been published.
A fully illustrated collection of My 8-Year-Old Self's most nerdy moments. Includes earlier versions of illustrations and behind-the-scenes tidbits. This 30-page, PDF e-book is a free downloadable when you join the Geeky 8s.
